Id give todays race about a 6. There was some good side by side racing, but for the most part it was a pretty boring race. That and the fact that the awesome one runs out of fuel there at the end...and they said he could run 100 laps....HA!
 
It would have been a 9 or so if Jeff hadn't gotten such a bad deal on pit strategy. I liked all of the passing and bumping that went on all day. The track seemed a whole lot better than it had been in the past too.
 
I'll give it a 6. Because the track was much better than last year and there was some passing, but not as much as needed for a really good race. Plus fuel mileage and pit strategy played way too big a part in the outcome.

We heard more talk about pit stops than about anything that happened on the track. The last 35 laps were only exciting waiting to see who ran out of gas and who didn't. Johnson had the field covered because the next 6-7 cars were all concerving fuel and not really racing.
 
Because Harvick finished 2nd. Then I will give it about an 8
 
I will give it an 8...good racing...there was a lot of clean "beatin & bangin" and thats the way racin outta be! I took off 2 because of Ward's poor finish.
 
I will rate it about a 6. I also discovered that TNT network is the wrong name.It should be JGRN ,Jeff Gordon Raing network. I never heard announcers so worried about where the 24 car is . Come on Benny give me a break.
 
I enjoyed it. Now I am from Massachusetts but the gentleman giving the word to start your engines Craig Benson Is my Wifes Uncle :bounce: it was cool
 
I give it a 5...a little bland unless you are a Gordon fan.It was ironic to see Jimmie in sight of lapping Jeff right at the end of the race.Maybe instead of a 'drive for five',Jeff should worry about a relentless Jr passing him back for second......
 
I'd give it an 8. The race was very eventful, exciting, and rarely boring.

Perhaps you may have noticed that Jeff Gordon led the most laps. Would you have prefered they paid attention to Fox's favorite son Junior even though he did very little today?
 
I found it very boring so I'd give it a 2, only because Jeff B. had a pretty good finish. Ward had a pretty tough time for some reason, another reason for a low score.

I hear ya on that second part! <_< :(
 
I'd give it a 7, simply because it was much better than I expected.

Favorite driver-wise, well...I guess it's about a 5, Terry had a lousy day and fell in points, but my second favorites finished 1st and 2nd, so that works. :)
 
I'd give it a 7,could have rated higher,except for coming down to a fuel-mileage race,too many races are turning out like that IMO!
Was good to see that the track surface was finally a lot better there,I hope that the owners leave the surface alone now,it should be alright!
